In all these examples there is not 1 single African there talkless of Nigerian.
Even abroad, younger men marrying older women is the exception not the norm.


@oP na small child still dey do you... when you grow up small your eye will open.
Age is not just a number, especially if you are an African. Oyinbo people have already normalised homosexuality while it carries 14 year jail term in Nigeria.
The summary of my talk is that we are Africans/Nigerians and as such reason like one.
Keep Quiet

Count it all joy you have someone you love, the earlier you take that age thing off your head the better for you. Marry her asap if y’all are compatible. Don’t listen to people on the advice of age, you just need to do what will make you happy the rest of your life. Be happy and forget that age.

My mum is 78 and my dad is 69, we’ve all grown and are happy. I wish my dad can advice you on this because their experience about people back then according to him was worst, now most of those people are either dead, had issues or barely surviving. But here they are, went though thick and thin and still at it. Please do you, no advisor will live with you the rest of your life and if something goes wrong when you take their advice, they will come back to tell you that you had your choice to make because they only adviced you��� and not choose for you. So do you bro


Wow! If this is true then your parents really fought hard to be together. In this day, it is still somehow not to talk of then.

What do you mean by this statement in bold?

Are there no 38yr old single women?

Why do you sound like the woman has many and better offers?

If she cannot wait 6 yrs for the OP to stand as a man then let her go.

By the time he is ready he may consider her amongst others as there is no guarantee that she will be happily married by then.



At 38, hardly can it be by choice. Aunty can't wait another 6 years ooo!

That's what they will say, age isn't a barrier... I want you to do an experiment. Look for a 44 years old woman and also look for a 38 year old guy. The difference you see, it's what you will see when you are just 44 years and she is 50 years. You will now understand that numbers are really numbers. Lol! By the time you are 55 years and still hot, she is 61 years, then you will also understand that age is a barrier. People that married their age mate, ask them how the journey be not to talk of 6 years older than the man. How old was Abraham and that of his wife? If you guys are not age mate, forget her. Simple!

never you ask for people mind on who to marry, because you will endup saying they push you into it. but age does'nt matter.

If u really love her , age shouldn’t be a barrier. Like someone said age is just a number. If both parties love each, there should be any problem at all. I wish u all the best in your relationship.
Respect is the currency of men, not love

You people should just stop deceiving yourselves.How can you possibly be thinking of marrying a lady who's 6years older than you.You may be claiming love now,but when you eventually get married,she will start seeing you as small boy.you are too young to get involved in such relationship.Go and get a life first,so will know what you really wants in a woman, but for now, you don't really know.

You need the F's
Fossils = be older
Fortune = be wealther
Fitness = be fitter

If she older than you are detest from it cuz she used you to quench her emotional trauma... Know this and know peace find some one who compliment your age for you to live long...

Age difference in marriage is socially constructed. There are no rules that suggest the man should be older.
If you find a woman or man you love.
If they make you happy.
If they can make you laugh.
If you can fart in their presence
If the sex is enjoyable, whether it is for a minute or an hour.

Marry the person quick quick

Better a day in a happy marriage than forty years in a sorrowful one.

Make e be like dat.
if age is socially constructed why do Muslim marry young girls instead of older women, age is important in marriage its only in a few cases I have seen a marriage where the woman is older than the man survives in the long run please don't deceive the op cuz love is not even enough in marriage

Stop looking to others to validate your life and existence. undecided

Too many of you go from cradle to grave never once actually making your own decision because most everything you do so based on what others have done in their own lives. What is the worth of you as an individual if you exist only to copy others and doing life exactly as others do it. ? undecided

Experience is the best teacher. This is a simple thing to understand. Women age faster than men. Allow him do the experiment. He will display the results for you to see. Marriage is sacred. Unless you want the young man to start funny lifestyle in his marriage when the age thing clocks in. To avoid wahala, marry at worst your age mate. That's my opinion.

Shakira and Gerard Piqué have been married for about 10 years now, Shakira is Older than Piqué and there's been no bad news about them(none that I know of).
Macron is way younger than his wife and younger than her children.
I think what you should be more concerned about is respect, do you both respect eachother regardless of the age difference? Even if you're older and neither of you respects the other, it might not work unless you both enjoy violence.
Personally, respect and other stuff are what I consider and not the age (especially if the age gap isn't much).
Anyway, no be Piqué, Macron and other people go decide for you.
What do you both want? How do you treat eachother?

You dey talk about oyibo wey dey respect small children and the poor!

So by the statement in bold, have you actually dated an older women and actually seen her age faster the you or are you here regurgitated what others have instead told you or such things? undecided

Out of one side of your mouth you proclaim that experience is the best teacher yet while revealing you have none of that experience to actually boast of except what others equally as ignorant as you feed to you. undecided
